This is another one of those releases that I feel needs to be adequately ranted about the minute it arrives as it is extremely frustrating listening to how horrifically talented these guys are, and this album really does sound like a perfect slice of the 70s which is a perfect start to a chilling Monday morning. After coming across Stubb some time back on the Dopefight album launch I must admit they did go somewhat under the radar at the time but it was after becoming horrifically attached to the songs of Trippy Wicked that I went on the hunt for anything I could get my hands on that was crafted by Pete and Chris. The first Stubb EP was very “lo-fi” so to hear these songs recorded to such a high standard is a real treat and I know for a fact that it will not be leaving my playlist for quite some time. Each song covers a different mood from the initial building stomp and groove of ‘Road’ and ‘Scale the Mountain’ leading to a much more ambient and trippy (unavoidable pun link!) sound of the final songs ‘Crying River’ and ‘Galloping horses’ It comes as no surprise that they sound so good seeing as they were lovingly mixed and mastered by Tony Reed of Stone Axe fame (whom they shall be touring alongside later this year!) who certainly is a man with an ear for all things Psych and retro.

Right that’s all I am going to say! RANT OVER, JUST BUY IT or LISTEN TO IT AND BUY IT!! And see their cracking video below:
